It’s Art Charades! The Smithsonian American Art Museum staff and interns took an afternoon to run around and pose like works of art in the collection. Some of us brought props, others just brought smiling (or grumpy!) faces. It was a blast and we got some great photos.

You can do it to! I’d encourage you to take a look at the entire image set on the museum’s flickr, and then come in and take some photos of your own. Photography is allowed in the permanent galleries and the Luce Foundation Center; feel free to ask a security guard if you’re unsure.
